I'm using SMS Framework at the moment with SMS Global as the provider.
works pretty well, SMS comes pretty much instantly.
interested in responses as well

one of the key things we needed was short turnaround between when the request is sent and when the sms is received.
some providers give you cheaper rates because they route the SMS around the world, put in "off peak" queues in other countries, but the SMS can take a long time to actually send.
if speed is something you need to consider, make sure you check how your requests are handled.
I recommend smsglobal.com.au
I have a couple of cron jobs that send out SMS messages through SMS Global's HTML API as well as manual messages I send out using the Web UI. I am very happy with their service.
